(BaseballStL) – In his last two outings, Shelby Miller hasn’t pitched longer than 5.1 innings. But despite the rough outings he's given his team a chance to win which means Miller is looking for his sixth win.

Saturday he’ll battle against 36-year-old veteran Aaron Harang.

Against the Braves, Miller doesn’t have much experience, only 54 total at-bats. He has given up a lone homer to Freddie Freeman.

The Redbirds on the other hand have had 138 at-bats against the Braves right hander. Harang is 4-3 on the season with a 2.98 ERA. Jhonny Peralta has 2 homers while Peter Bourjos, who was ejected from Friday’s game, also has a home run against Harang.
